OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
OPERATION continued...
6) It is recommended to connect a vacuum to the rear opening of the cabinet. Remove
the plastic cap (A) Fig.5 by pushing it out and connect a vacuum hose. This will greatly
reduce airborn dust inside the cabinet, increasing visibility.
7) Close the lid and secure the lid closed using the two locking levers.
Never sandblast
with the lid open, even if you are wearing protective safety equipment.
8) Turn on your air compressor and vacuum (if used).
9) Position both hands into the glove openings, and begin sandblasting your workpiece.
It is recommended to keep the nozzle approximately 2” away from the workpiece. Start
at a lower air compressor setting, adjust as needed. Different pressures and different
abrasives will produce different results, experimentation is needed.
MAINTENANCE
ALWAYS DISCONNECT POWER AND THE AIR SUPPLY TO THE MACHINE BEFORE
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE. FAILURE TO DO THIS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY.
Always check the following each time you use the Sandblast Cabinet. Replace any parts
that are found to be worn or damaged:
• Excessively worn or cracked nozzles.
• Make sure all fittings are tight and not leaking using soapy water and a spray bottle.
• Check the media collecting hose for thin walls and signs of bubbling.
Keep sandblast media moisture-free at all times. If moisture gets into the sandblast
media, it will frequently clog the sandblast gun. Cleaning the gun and its nozzle will be
required if this happens. Reduce moisture in the sandblast media before using again.
